"It was one of those games where you had to scrap,"Molinaro told The Herald-Tribune. "Who's going to get the key hit? Fortunately for us 'Moose' (Marshall) got the key hit. He hit four balls hard tonight."

Marshall got that hit in his third season as a pro. It was also his final season as a pro. Marshall never made AA.

Marshall's career began in 1989, taken by the Rangers in the ninth round of the draft out of LeMoyne College in Syracuse, NY.

At LeMoyne, Marshall provided another key hit, two of them. He hit two home runs against Arizona State to get his team to the NCAA Division I Northeast Regional title game.
